Libertarians Shipping Off

Details says the experiment would be "a kind of floating petri dish for implementing policies that libertarians, stymied by indifference at the voting booths, have been unable to advance: no welfare, looser building codes, no minimum wage, and few restrictions on weapons."

I love this idea. What could possibly go wrong in a society designed after the ideals of Ayn Rand? It's not like there are any sci-fi stories which portray this sort of situation.
